Voting Rules

* NO UNEXPLAINED VOTES.
Specifically, scorecards without a rationale WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
You may use any style of voting you wish (breakdowns, scorecard WITH rationale, paragraphs, etc) as long as you refer to the verses (with quotes or by saying "That line about ____" ) to support reasons why you think who won did.
If A moderator deems a vote to be unexplained, it will be discounted.
How To Win:
3-0 Is A KO
4-1 Is A Win (not a KO)
First To 5 Is A Win
There Will be a voting period at the end of which the person with the most votes will win, if none of the above ways to win were met.
Rankings
Your rankings will be based upon your win/loss percentage, for example
Person A: 2 wins, 0 Losses - 100%
Person B: 2 wins, 1 Loss - 66.7%
Person C: 1 win, 1 loss - 50%
KO’s will be recorded, and used to determine who gets a title shot when more two eligible people have the same win/loss percentage. (IE.. Say 2 People Are Tied At A 100% Rating And We Are Trying To Determine A #1 Contender. We Will Pick Whoever Has The Most 3-0 KOs)
If You No Show, It Will Be An Automatic 2 Losses Added To Your R.B.L Record (No-shows will also be recorded & if you no show to frequenty you may not be allowed to participate)
Weight Classes
Light Weight:
0 - 49% Rating
Or less than 3 wins
Lighweights can drop 3-5 bars
Middle Weight:
50 - 74.9% Rating
Or less than 6 wins
middleweights can drop 4-6 bars
Heavy Weight:
75 - 100% rating
Heavywrights can drop 5-8 bars, or 5- Unlimited bars when the HW champ has the Undisputed belt (to be worked out between yourselves)
Belts
There will be a lightweight, middleweight, heavyweight & undisputed belt.
Initially, everyone will be starting in lightweight - so the first person to win via KO in week 1 will be awarded the lightweight belt. After this, the belt holder will have to defend the belt each week against the #1 contendor.
The #1 contendor is the person with the best win/loss percentage (ranking) in their weight class. If two people have an equal win/loss percentage then the person with the most KOs will get the shot. If there is an equal number of KOs then the person who's battle finished first in the previous round will get the shot.
Once we have 5 middleweights the middle weight belt will be introduced, same deal for heavyweight.
If you lose the belt, you will have to wait 3 weeks to get another shot at it, regardless of your ranking.
To get a shot at a belt you must be in the correct weight class, but to defend it you may be in any class. (i.e. if a lightweight successfully defends the belt a few times their win/loss percentage will probably make them a middleweight - but they can continue to defend the lightweight belt if they wish)
There is no "retiring" of belts - the number of weeks you have held the belt for will be recorded in an RBL HOF type thingy... You may forfeit a belt at any stage if you wish.
If you successfully defend the heavyweight belt 3 times, you become the Undisputed Champion. The Undisputed belt can only be obtained by defending the heavyweight belt 3 times successfully, i.e. the #1 heavyweight condendor will only be battling for the heavyweight belt, not the undisputed.
Noone may hold more than one belt at any stage, except heavyweight & undisputed
